 = when used with a node set like
$excludes/ID is  true if any of the nodes is equal to whatever you are
testing.


But if your variable is defined as in the first post you want
$excludes/EXCLUDE/ID
not
$excludes/ID
as you don't have any ID elements at the top level of the variable.


<xsl:variable name="curID"><xsl:value-of
select="@submitid"/></xsl:variable>

grr as in a message of a minute ago, dont do that do this

<xsl:variable name="curID"
select="@submitid"/>

it's less to type and a lot less work for your processor.
(athough of course in this case you don't need a variable at all 
not($excludes/ID=@submitid)
should work fine.)
